Before the Word War I. , we have a big country. We had Transsylvania, most part of Slovakia, Croatia and we had a coastline. Just to let you know, at these regions the Hungarian people were always more than the other nations.

Unfortunatelly, Hungarian Kingdom was disciplined the most, but i don't know why...
After treaty of Trianon (which is actually a palace in Versailles) we got the the borders like this

that is because of legend of Dracula. :wink:

they couldn't understand how big the damage will be, later, after cutting the borders radically. From the ethnography till the infrastructure... :?

Austria-Hungary was the name of the country, me thinks. At least, that's what it's called, literally translated from the original dutch name.

I was reading about this today, Hungarian people living a very poor live in a part of Rumania (Transsylvania) that once belonged to Hungary. They're just poor because they are a minority. Things like that shouldn't have happened...
